Abstract

La présente invention réalise de manière appropriée une transmission entrelacée lorsqu'une bande passante utilisable entière est variable. Un terminal d'utilisateur selon un aspect de la présente invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend : une unité de transmission pour transmettre un signal de liaison montante dans une porteuse dans laquelle une écoute est effectuée avant la transmission, le signal de liaison montante étant émis à l'aide d'un entrelacement constitué d'une pluralité de ressources de fréquence disposées à l'intérieur d'une bande passante prédéterminée à des intervalles de fréquence prédéterminés ; et une unité de commande pour commander les intervalles de fréquence prédéterminés auxquels la pluralité de ressources de fréquence constituant l'entrelacement sont disposées.
